I recently found this hidden gem and absolutely love their juicy, tender, and perfectly crisp fried chicken. The mango bingsu is so amazing that I don’t even need to go downtown for a great Korean dessert (just a heads up, you can’t order it on Uber Eats—I discovered it when I went to pick up). I ended up ordering way more than my husband and I could handle! It’s now my favorite fried chicken spot on the UES. Great food at a good price!

The best Korean fried chicken I've had. The red hot pepper sauce is very delicious. The tikkudak is a delicious combination of fried and then charred that I have not had before, but will definitely come back for. Very crispy and moist. I was lucky to be able to dine in since they only have one table.

I've had my fair share of Korean Fried Chicken, and this place is the best by far. The original chicken is perfectly crispy and authentic, my top recommendation. They also offer Tikkudak with a smoky flavor, which is great, but I still prefer the original.

Portions are generous, and the owner is so kind and detail-oriented, making the experience even better. Highly recommend!

I've gone to many korean fried Chicken spots in the upper East side. I love the fry and the flavors of CM chicken the best! The curry flavor is especially good. Crunch on the chicken is perfect even after taking it home... I'll be coming back here often!

This location has been here only about seven months and today is August 11, 2024. This is a chain and there are a few in New Jersey as well. It’s nice to have something for Korean fried chicken as well as shaved ice with mango or chocolate flavors in this upper East side residential area on 91st Street and 1st Avenue in Manhattan. For $10.50 you can get a mango shaped ice with mango pieces, shaved ice, ice cream with mango inside and some cake pieces mixed in. It’s very refreshing for summer. There is indoor seating. No outdoor seating. The owner is very nice and sweet. And Korean fried chicken is very light and crispy on the outside so it is a very enjoyable taste and not too heavy.

1st time customer. I had good, garlic spicy drumsticks (which were large & meaty)

This might be the best fried chicken I’ve ever had. Much much better than the other local Korean fried chicken spot. The flavors are incredible, they give an excellent amount of meat, the pickled onions are sweet and a great contrast. It’s dangerous how good they are. I’ll be back often

Some of the best food I’ve ever had in my life. I mean that with my whole heart.

The truffle fries were legitimately the best fries I’ve EVER TASTED. Perfectly seasoned waffle fries that were crisp, the dipping sauce was mouthwatering, and I’m coming back asap to get more.

The fried chicken was just unbelievable. An explosion of flavor in my mouth. Bigger than any war bombing. It was outstanding.
